FILE - In this June 24, 2012 file photo, Paraguay's former President Fernando Lugo talks through the “open microphone” of the Public Television, surrounded by reporters and followers in downtown Asuncion, Paraguay. Lugo spoke in a pre-dawn special televised "open microphone" program hosted by the state-funded Public Television channel that was created by his government, to denounce his ouster as a "parliamentary coup". A shootout that killed 11 farmworkers and 6 police officers prompted Lugo’s opponents shortly thereafter to vote the sandal-wearing leftist out of office for “mismanaging” the property dispute. Paraguayans’ hopes that Lugo would make good on his promises of land reform died. (AP Photo, File)
